(1) I had 1st Restylane injection to nose bridge 5 months ago. ~4.5 months ago (2 weeks later), I had 2nd Restylane injection to nose as touch up. Currently, my nose still maintain at least 50% of the shape vs. immediately after 2nd Restylane injection. Is it safe to have Radiesse nose injection ~4.5 months after Restylane nose injection? Does it affect the nose shape since Radiesse is injected to nose that still contain some Restylane?(2)Is it ok to go long flight immediately after Radiesse?

You can have Radiesse after having Restylane

You can have Radiesse after having Restylane. You want to give it about a month to settle in before getting another injectable because you want to determine what component is swelling or bruising. But there’s not a contraindication if you’ve used a hyaluronic acid filler like Restylane initially to then use a calcium based product afterwards.

Radiesse for nose once restylane in place

If you are to embark on further injecting your nose, make sure you have an experienced physician injector. The two products can be layered on each other, but great care has to be taken the there is no vascular compromise. Flying 4hrs after injection should be safe, assuming that the fillers were injected correctly.

While injectable filler treatments into the nose are easy to do and make an immediate difference, they are not complication free. While I am not aware of any material interactions between Restylane and Radiesse, it would be prudent to wait until one thinks all of the previous injectable filler has resorbed before introducing a different one. You do not want to develop some type of inflammatory reaction on your nose if it can be avoided. There are no restrictions to flying after any... more

Injections of filler in the nose, not as safe as once thought

There are more and more reports of complications coming from nasal injections with fillers of vascular compromise. Prior nasal surgery puts you at particular risk. After knowing that, and you still want to get it done, I would only recommend using an HA filler (Restylane, Juvederm, Perlane) because there is a way to dissolve these products if a problem arises. Radiesse can not be dissolved and posses a problem if an issue happens. There is no problem with... more
